Hello all. I'm brand new to keeping an aquarium and am fumbling my way through owning my first. Definitely hitting lots of problems (and am getting lots of great advice here already!), but I think I'm on my way to a stable 10 gallon aquarium!

I'm even breeding guppies already (they wouldn't stop making babies no matter how much I pleaded) ;)

I'm learning more things every day and I get the feeling this hobby is going to take up a lot of my time!

Welcome to the AC, great help and info here...I recommend you read ALL the sticky's in the beginner's freshwater corner, tons of good things to know when you are just getting started.

Good! But the tank won't be stable until it and your filter are fully cycled.

Welcome to the forum. As suggested; read all the sticky's in the beginner's section you can.

Awesome! I have a Nikon D3200, but I'm just learning to play around with it. I'm very impressed by your bird photography. Do you have a telephoto lens? I'm looking around for one and was wondering which one you use?
